About Dirty Life
Dirty Life develops wheels for demanding trail and competition environments. The Mesa Race line combines cast-aluminum construction with a functional beadlock ring, while correct torque procedures, legal use, and complete dimensional compatibility remain the installer’s responsibility.

FAQ
What is the 9312-7973M12?It is one 17x9 machined Mesa Race true beadlock wheel with a 5x127 bolt pattern and -12 mm offset.
Is this wheel sold individually?Yes. The listed quantity is one wheel.
Does a 5x127 bolt pattern guarantee fitment?No. Center bore, offset, backspace, brake clearance, load, tire, suspension, and fender clearance must also be confirmed.
What center bore does it use?The verified center bore is 71.5 mm.
What is the load rating?The verified load rating is 3,400 pounds per wheel. The complete wheel-and-tire system must remain within every applicable vehicle rating.
What lug seat is required?The verified wheel specification uses a conical lug seat, but the lug hardware must also match the vehicle studs and thread pitch.
Is the beadlock ring functional?Yes. The outer ring mechanically clamps the tire bead and must be installed and serviced using the current Dirty Life procedure.
Can this wheel be selected by vehicle list alone?No. Vehicle suggestions do not replace measurement of the hub, brakes, suspension, tires, and body clearance.
Installation Instructions
- Confirm the 5x127 bolt pattern, 71.5 mm bore, offset, backspace, load capacity, brake clearance, tire size, and local beadlock-use restrictions.
- Inspect the wheel, ring, and every ring fastener for shipping damage and verify all mating surfaces are clean.
- Have a qualified wheel and tire technician mount the tire using the current Dirty Life beadlock procedure and approved lubrication practices.
- Seat the outer tire bead beneath the ring and tighten every ring fastener in the documented cross-pattern and staged torque sequence.
- Install compatible conical-seat lug hardware, torque it in the vehicle-specified sequence, and verify clearance through full steering and suspension travel.
- Recheck lug and beadlock-ring torque after the manufacturer’s initial service interval and inspect the assembly before off-road use.
